I would like a high top base shoe but I have not seen one yet-except for the New Balance with that stupid Gray logo that looks like it would get dirty and look like crap after one game.

joe,
i've been dealing with the same thing as you with my left foot. stretch, stretch, stretch. when you think you've stretched enough, do it more. not just game time, but all day. massaging helps, too. PT i saw in the southern league 2 years ago had me roll my foot around on top of a golf ball and also on top of a popsicle he made from freeaing water in one of those little green gatorade cups. i, too, wear the NB base shoes with inserts. it helps, but unfortunately, this plantar crap is something that is just so ridiculously hard to get rid of if you have to use your feet. keep on pluggin', i feel your pain.
